outputs on the
CPA 3200E
CPA 4000E
You need to connect the outputs on the back of your pre-amplifier to a power
amplifier in order to drive your loudspeakers. There are three pairs of outputs, each
of which will drive a 68
load. You can connect to either the XLR or RCA
outputs numbered 1, but not to both types at the same time.
connecting to your power amplifier if it has balanced XLR style inputs
1. Use XLR style connectors to connect Right O/P 1 to Right IN on your power
amp, and connect Left O/P 1 to Left IN on your power amplifier.
2. On your remote control press PRE and then O/P 1 to select output 1.
connecting to your power amplifier if it has unbalanced RCA style inputs
1. Use RCA style connectors to connect Right O/P 1 to Right IN on your power
amplifier, and connect Left O/P 1 to Left IN on your power amplifier.
2. On your remote control press PRE and then O/P 1 to select output 1.
if you want to bi-amp
Bi-amping is a technique where you use one amplifier to drive the loudspeakers’
woofers (low frequencies) and another to drive the tweeters (mid and high
frequencies).
1. Use XLR style connectors to connect Right and Left O/P 1 to your first power
amplifier.
2. Use XLR style connectors to connect Right and Left O/P 2 to your second
power amplifier.
3. Connect the outputs of your first power amplifier to your loudspeaker’s low
frequency inputs.
4. Connect the outputs of your second power amplifier to your loudspeaker’s high
frequency inputs.
Remove any shorting links in the binding posts.
5. On your remote control press PRE and then OP 1/2 to select both outputs 1 and 2.
